Three hundred thousand Qin troops spread out and camped about two miles away from Luoyi, surrounding Luoyi tightly.
From the tall city wall of Luoyi, we can see the Qin army outside the city, with their tents stretching like a vast ocean, with no edges visible at a glance.
"The people of Qin are so arrogant that they came to surround me in Luoyi without taking the defensive city.
Aren’t they afraid that our army will join forces with the defenders and attack from both front and back?”
At the top of Luoyi City, many generals stood and looked at the Qin army's military strength outside the city.
Among the generals of the Wei people, the leader was nearly fifty years old. He was the only military general in the Wei people. His name was Gongsun Qi. He was thin in stature, but he stood there with a calm aura.
His family has been a general in Wei for generations.
Gongsun Qi said in a deep voice: "The people of Qin did this on purpose.
What they hope is that our army will go out to attack the city, so that they can force the strong city of Luoyi to open and use their strengths to avoid weaknesses, which is what the Qin army wants.
How foolish would it be for our army to leave the city?"
Le Yi stood behind Gongsun Qi, her face turned red.
Gongsun Qi accused Sang and scolded Huai, saying that going out to fight with the Qin people was exposing his own shortcomings.
And he happened to be the stupid person who went out of the city to attack the Qin people.
Le Yi was unconvinced and said: "I fought with the Qin people several times, and we were only a little short of defeating the Qin Dynasty. If the general at that time could bring troops to support me, Xiongli, and your army and ours combined, we would be able to defeat the Qin army."
Furthermore, my leaving the city was ordered by the king’s edict, so I didn’t do anything on my own initiative?”
Gongsun Qi sneered: "I sent someone to tell you to be careful. You are greedy for success and ignore it, but you think I am as stupid as you? If I lead troops to help you, I will immediately fall into Meng Ao's scheme.
You say that the Qin people have 300,000 soldiers and horses, but only the 80,000 people standing around you can't do it.
If I go to help you, the Qin army will definitely have an ambush, and they will lose as much as they go."
Le Yi frowned and said: "The other soldiers and horses of the Qin army were attacking other cities in the Wei Dynasty on the border. If the general leads the troops, there will definitely be no ambush!"
Gongsun Qi felt a headache and did not engage in such a fearless verbal battle with Le Yi.
Le Yi snorted angrily, turned around and left.
"General, this Le Yi relies on someone from his Le family who is a concubine in the palace. He has been defeated and still doesn't repent. It's better to force him back to the capital to save trouble." Gongsun Qi's lieutenant looked at Le Yi's back and said.
Gongsun Qi shook his head slightly:
"If he goes back, I'm afraid he will put all the responsibility for the defeat on us for not sending troops to assist. If the king listens to his slander, it will be even worse for us."
"The Qin army is besieging me in Luoyi. Does the general have any strategy to defeat the enemy?" the deputy general asked again.
Gongsun Qi said melancholy: "Meng Ao has been attacking Wei for many years, and he is as familiar with the situation inside and outside the Wei Dynasty, as well as the mountains and rivers geography.
My strategy will not be effective against Meng Ao, and will only increase consumption. For the purpose of this plan, we must first stabilize the morale of the army, and don't mess up the position."

Outside the city, the Qin army set up camp and hammered wooden piles and other objects into the ground with clanging sounds.
Meng Ao came to check it out in person, checking every detail, and planned to live outside Luoyang permanently.
"Defense carefully to prevent the Wei army from attacking the camp." Meng Ao ordered the people around.
Behind him were Mu Qianshui and Ji Qian who acted as bodyguards.
When Mu Qianshui saw Meng Ao ordering the three armies with such majesty, his heart felt itchy. He couldn't help but want to learn how to be a general, so he asked politely:
"General Meng, I have something to ask you.
The Wei army was defeated before and the generals were standing guard. Why did they then allow the remaining 10,000 soldiers to withdraw without pursuing them?
From what I saw, there was clearly a chance to eat them all!"
During this period, Mu Qianshui thwarted the assassinations of Zhuxian Dongtian and the Jing family several times, and protected the lives of many generals of the Qin army. Meng Ao admired him very much. Wen Yan explained:
"Xiong Lishou General's name is Le Yi, and he is the elder brother of Le Shi, the favorite concubine of the Wei Palace.
What Le Yi is best at is striving for credit. If he loses, he will shirk the blame in every possible way and refuse to admit it.
Putting such people back into the Wei army will only be beneficial to our army in attacking Wei.
As for his more than 10,000 defeated troops, their energy and spirit have been dispersed by us. Putting them back to spread the news of their defeat at the hands of our army will only further lower the morale of the Wei people, which will also be beneficial to our army.
What's more... the people of Wei are short of food. If they are put back, they will have more than 10,000 mouths.
I actually wanted to send all the defeated Wei troops back, but it's a pity that you charged too hard at the front, and you killed the Wei troops when they were defeated, leaving few behind for the Wei people to send back."
All the generals laughed.
Mu Qianshui realized this, nodded slightly, and became more interested in marching and fighting.
Meng Ao besieged the city for more than half a month.
The news reached Daliang, the capital of Wei, and as time passed, the atmosphere in the Wei court continued to change.
Gradually, voices began to make veiled accusations, saying that the reason for the situation of the Wei people was that they had been training their troops with all their strength and had consumed too much.
The person who took the lead in training troops was none other than King Wei Wu.
At the same time, Xianyang in mid-May.
After the battle reports from the front were sent back, Lu Buwei came to Xianyang Palace in person to report:
"General Meng Ao's siege of Luoyi but not an attack will surely cause the Wei people to continue to be exhausted, and the morale of the army will be unstable, and sooner or later they will collapse."
Zhao Huaizhong reviewed the battle report and sighed.
"As early as last year, your Majesty formulated a strategy to induce the Wei people to strengthen their military training and increase their consumption... My Majesty's plan is admired by the old ministers." Lu Buwei bowed his head and said.
Zhao Huaizhong smiled and said: "It was a strategy jointly formulated with General Meng and General Wang Jian at that time, and it was not the work of a few people.
This battle was far from over, so the purpose of surrounding Luoyi without fighting was to force the Wei people to disorganize themselves.
As time goes by, the decisive victory will come when the Wei people take action."
Lu Buwei nodded in agreement, and then said: "I have a memorial that needs the king's approval."
A quarter of an hour later, when Lu Buwei retreated, Zhao Huaizhong stood up, came to the window, and looked to the west.

Deep in the demon ruins.
In the golden flame, Wu Huang walked out with his hands behind his back.
He put away the flames on his body, revealing a sinister face with a high nose and majesty.
He is tall, has a slender face, but has a broad forehead.
What's special is that there is a little golden halo hidden deep in his pupils, and he is aloof and aloof.
He walked out of the void, and the golden flames outside his body converged, fell into his hands, and turned into a small golden tree about a foot tall, surrounded by flames.
The Demon Lord had been waiting aside for a long time. He looked at the golden fire tree in his hand with undisguised envy and shook his tail:
"What are you going to do when you wake up from your deep sleep?"
Wuhuang did not respond. He glanced around and saw all kinds of changes in various places in the Middle-earth China before his eyes.
Scenes after scenes arise and die before his eyes.
Qin and Wei were at war, and Chu, Qi, and Yan, including all the tribes on the grassland, appeared one by one, and then disappeared and collapsed in the blink of an eye.
It is worth mentioning that the Qin land shown in front of him suddenly became blurry when the scene shifted to Xianyang, and what he could see was limited.
When we arrived at Linzi, the capital of the Qi people, the picture was also slightly blurry and impossible to see clearly.
"The people of Qin are so lucky that they cannot see through the sky. But the people of Qi... actually have immortal weapons to protect their country."
Wuhuang stood with his hands behind his back, and a small light golden mirror appeared in his hand.
The mirror is deep and deep, with a little flame burning in the center.
"You, the Golden Crow, are worthy of being the royal family of our demon clan, and you have these treasures in your hands," the demon master said sourly.

Wei Di, Daliang.
"Your Majesty, for our current plan, we can only attack the Qin army from the outside and coordinate with the defenders in Luoyi City to break the siege of the Wei army.
I ask for orders to lead the troops to relieve the danger in Luoyi." Lord Long Yang said.
Wei Wu, dressed in royal robes, stood by the window of a bedroom in the Wei Palace.
The spring is warm in May, and the flowers and plants outside the window are blooming in colorful colors.
Wei Wu was actually not too worried about the situation in front of him.
The elite Wei army, which has gone all out to train its troops and was trained by Yin Shang soldiers, has not yet entered the battlefield.
This Wei imperial army was Wei Wu's greatest support.
He lamented: "Le Yi's improper use of troops led to our army's defeat at the hands of the Qin people in the first battle. It is really hateful.
Given the current situation, I will hand over the most elite imperial guards of the Wei people to the Qing family.
I hope that the Qing family can live up to their expectations, defeat the Qin people in one fell swoop, and show great power to our great Wei!"
Long Yangjun knelt down and saluted, his expression firm.
He led the troops to relieve the crisis in Luoyi, which was related to the rise and fall of the Wei Dynasty. If he failed, the consequences would be disastrous.
May 24th, the weather was fine.
After the Qin army besieged Luoyi for nearly a month, Lord Long Yang led his troops and set out from Daliang to rescue Luoyi.
At this time, the food and grass in Luoyi City were almost exhausted, and the Qin army was besieged layer by layer, making it difficult for birds to enter or exit.
The soldiers and civilians in the city, including the generals, became increasingly restless, and uneasiness spread.
Fortunately, Long Yangjun led the troops and arrived in time.
At the end of May, the troops of Qin and Wei formed an array outside Luoyi City and started a battle.
Lord Longyang came to relieve the crisis in Luoyi. He was full of fighting spirit and launched an offensive after his appearance.
In this battle, what the Wei people faced was their own national destiny.
In Luoyi City, Gongsun Qi also sent troops, with the purpose of echoing the troops led by Lord Long Yang and attacking the Qin army in the hope of winning in one fell swoop!
At noon, the sky is cloudy.
Outside Luoyi City, the confrontation had lasted for several hours.
Flags are flying on the battlefield, and war drums are beating.
It was not until this time that the Qin army truly showed its strength as a tiger and a wolf, changing its previous slow pace when besieging Xiongli.
The Central Army of Qin, armed with 40,000 secret-text elites, faced the Wei imperial army that Lord Long Yang had killed from the west.
There were also elite Qin troops who retreated to confront the Wei army in Luoyi.
The two sides fought for half a day, with blood flowing on the battlefield, broken limbs and arms, and corpses strewn across the field.
A Wei soldier, covered in blood, stepped over his companion's body, swung his sword and stabbed the Qin army in front of him in the waist and ribs.
Click!
The armor of the Qin army who was attacked by it was shattered.
The Wei army was overjoyed. In the half-day battle that had passed, the Qin army's armor, intertwined with secret texts, had blocked the Wei army's attacks countless times, and now it was finally broken.
However, this Wei soldier was exhausted, and before he could take action any further, the Qin soldier in front penetrated his neck bone with a swing of his sword, causing blood to fly.
In the sky, the totem generated by the Wei army's military formation drill is also a black bird.
This is the totem they obtained by inheriting the military strategy of the Yin Shang Dynasty.
"Army formation!"
The Wei people's imperial army, under the command of Lord Long Yang, gathered tens of thousands of people and suddenly formed a weapon dozens of feet long.
This was their strongest attack method, and the battle swept across half of the battlefield.
At this moment, all the Wei Imperial Guards were full of confidence and filled with murderous intent!
Over the past year or so, they have put in countless sweats, and the military power they have gathered together is indestructible, with the power to move mountains and reclaim seas.
On the opposite side, the Qin army faced a huge enemy and did not defend, but chose to attack.
The Qin army also concentrated their efforts and evolved a hundred-foot-long black dragon totem.
Boom!
The weapon fell and struck the black dragon on the neck.
His neck was suddenly broken in half, but then countless secret texts circulated, and he withstood the attack of the soldiers.
This is the first time in the history of the Secret Text Qin Army that everyone has worked together to establish the Secret Text Totem.
The black dragon looked up to the sky and roared like an army roaring.
It turned over in the air, looked back and bit the weapon in mid-air.
On its dragon teeth, there are countless secret texts like threads, and the binding is tightened, strangling the war.
Under the suppression of the secret text, the war gradually became illusory and eventually disappeared.
Behind the battlefield, Lord Long Yang felt his heart sink.
Although the strength of the Wei army, which was trained with all the national strength, has improved, it does not last long and is no match for the Qin army after all.
More importantly, the Wei army lacked the Qin army's victorious momentum and the belief that it would win without fear of death.
Faced with the war concluded by the Wei army, Qin chose to take the initiative to attack.
But the moment the Wei army was defeated by the Qin army, it was as if the pillars in their hearts collapsed, and everyone looked horrified.
The true elite is not only strong in strength, but also has invincible momentum and belief in the heart.
When the Wei army collapsed, Long Yangjun immediately ordered his soldiers to beat the war drums and send orders to retreat, intending to regroup.
But the Qin army, amidst the thundering drums, had pressed forward across the board.
"Blow the drum to send the signal, wait no more, let the ambush attack." Long Yangjun said in a deep voice.
The stakes for this battle were too high, and he had made many preparations.
